城市公共服务供给质量与农民工定居选址行为

The Quality of Urban Public Service Supply and Migrant Workers’ Settlement Choice

文章利用2017年全国流动人口动态监测调查数据与225个地级及以上城市的特征数据,采用条件Logit模型实证考察城市公共服务供给质量对农民工定居选址行为的影响。结果显示:(1)城市公共服务供给质量对农民工定居选址行为有显著的正向影响,并且对农民工的永久定居行为影响更为明显。(2)控制城市户籍限制后,城市公共服务供给质量对农民工定居选址行为的影响仍显著为正。(3)30~44岁、女性、高中教育水平、已婚、拥有自有住房者和自营劳动者身份的农民工在定居选址时对城市公共服务供给质量的敏感性更高。文章认为,在推进国家新型城镇化进程中,政府应着力提高城市公共服务供给质量,进一步推进户籍制度改革,建立健全面向农民工的基本公共服务提供机制,逐渐消除农民工与本地户籍人口公共服务供给质量的差异,更好地推进农民工市民化。

Based on the data of the 2017 CMDS and city-level statistics in 225 cities, the paper investigates how the quality of urban public service supply affects migrant workers’ settling site selection by using the conditional logit model. The results show that:(1) the quality of urban public service supply has a significant positive impact on the settlement site selection of migrant workers, and more substantial on their permanent settlement behavior.(2) After controlling for the urban household registration restrictions, the effect of the quality of urban public service supply remains salient.(3) Those who are 30 ~44 years old, female, of high school education, married, homeowners, or self-employed workers are more sensitive to the urban public service supply quality. This paper argues that government should improve the quality of urban public service supply, further reform the household registration system, establish a supply system of basic public services for rural migrant workers, and eliminate the public service gap between migrant workers and local residents.These are crucial to promote the urbanization of rural migrant workers and the new national urbanization process.
